Tim Walz’s Former Squadmate: If He’d Gone to Iraq, He’d Have Been ‘Hiding Under a Desk’ – Video
Gateway Pundit ^ | August 7, 2024 | Michael Schwarz

Anyone who claims to understand the forces at work in modern U.S. politics has almost certainly exaggerated.

For instance, on July 13, former President Donald Trump responded to a failed assassination attempt with a display of defiant courage. Afterward, only the most deranged Trump haters could deny that they had witnessed what all human beings from the beginning of time have recognized as rare bravery.

Then, little more than three weeks later, Vice President and 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris chose as her running mate a man who, according to a former command sergeant major and fellow NCO in the Minnesota Army National Guard, would “still be hiding under his desk” had he not skipped out on deployment to Iraq nearly two decades ago.

According to Retired Command Sgt. Maj. Tom Behrends, who served a two-year deployment to Iraq, Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, whom Harris selected as her running mate on Tuesday, showed “pathetic” leadership and “abandoned” the men in his command — all as a prelude to “stolen valor.”

This is Sgt Kyle Miller of the Minnesota National Guard

Hometown: Willmar, MN

He was 19 years old and a soldier in Tim Walz’ unit

He was killed by an IED on the deployment Tim Walz abandoned

Brave Brave Tim Walz
bravely runs away
When danger reared it’s ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
(”I never!”)
Yes, brave Tim Walz turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
(”You’re lying!”)
Swiftly taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat.

Walz repeated the “couch” discredited lie about Vance. He allowed himself no quarter.

A little detail here, which might suggest watching what info we trust and who or why they are saying things. I have been doing some queries about his unit after he retired. It turns out they did not get deployed to Iraq, he should have stayed in and secured his promotion!

After Tim Walz retired from the National Guard, his unit, the 1st Battalion, 125th Field Artillery, did not deploy to Iraq. Consequently, the unit did not endure casualties in Iraq during that time. Tim Walz retired from the Army National Guard in 2005 as a Command Sergeant Major, and the 1st Battalion, 125th Field Artillery did not deploy to Iraq post his retirement--Via ChatGPT 4o query.

And I hope it’s this November at the polls and ballot boxes.

And we know elsewhere that record-wise, his retirement was as a Master Chief because he retired before the promotion was completed. He is guilty, in my opinion, of stolen valor for claiming to be a retired Command Master Chief. (It would have been so simple for him to say I reached the rank of Command Master Chief, but retired early as a Master Chief. Once again, lack of honesty trips up a politician!)

Walz is a leftist bum who makes Bernie S look like a mensch.
Walz is a 60-year-old man who owns no stocks, bonds or real estate. He has no personal stake in the economy, as he sucks from the government tit. Remember that the founding fathers only extended voting rights to male property owners. That for a reason.

Haven’t you been informed that this is off limits? Unless someone was court0-martialed it is completely unethical and all manner of unscrupulous lack of scruples to mention he dodged deployment.

I’ve known two good men who lost legs in Fallujah.

Walz made sure that didn’t happen to Him.

Post 2 seems to disagree.

We are facing what one professor called the “Cartesian Crisis”.

Bottom line—trust no one.

Sounds like Mr. Walz has the same problem John F’n Kerry had with the Swiftees.

I wonder if they will pull him? That'd be so funny and fitting. Wuld Harris then pick Shapiro? Or does she have someone else so she can avoid him, which would be hard after his performance yesterday.

Popcorn time!

Doesn’t surprise me that he is looked at as a coward when he was in the military, doesn’t surprise me he quit when things were getting hot. Hot, like when the so-called “peaceful protests” were burning down the city, and he did nothing. Probably was hiding under his desk.
